Marshawn Lynch brought his love of Skittles to a senior living community

Marshawn Lynch’s notorious love of Skittles became a national phenomenon during his tenure with the Seattle Seahawks, where head coach Pete Carroll would allow him to eat his favorite candy on the sideline – just like Lynch’s mom used to do when he was a kid.

It’s a fitting illustration of the Oakland native’s approach to adulthood, which is to work hard and succeed while also holding on tightly to his inner child. Lynch quit football when it wasn’t fun for him anymore. A year later, he returned because he had the chance to play for his hometown Raiders.

He also stars in his own series on Facebook called “No Script” in which he endeavors to do cool things he’s never done before, like weird science experiments and doing voice over for Darth Vader.

He drove the community members around on a pimped out Skittles golf cart. He went for a speed walk in his sweatsuit and got his butt whooped in pickleball. He even busted out his best moves in a dance class.

If I’ve said it once, I’ve said it a thousand times: Marshawn Lynch is a national treasure.
